Cadw's description
Location
At the entrance to the graveyard of the Baptist chapel, reached by a minor road from Deeplake to South Dairy Mountain, to the N of the A40(T).
History
Gates forged for Bethesda Chapel, Haverfordwest, c.1830, and re-installed in this location c.1879. Other fittings for the chapel were acquired from Bethesda at the same date.
Exterior
A pair of lightly constructed wrought iron gates, hung on stone piers. The name 'Bethesda' is worked into the cresting. The decorative treatment consists largely of repeated scrolls.
Reason for designation
Listed as wrought-ironwork of c.1830 and for group value with the chapel.
